What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, March 27, 2015

I would like to say that when I first came to Pearland I was excited to move into my new home. When I walked into Rustic Oak Elementary School I was highly disappointed with the office staff members. They never smiled, they never said please nor thank you, needless to say I did not feel welcomed. At first I thought well maybe it's just me overly thinking things but when I saw other people come in stating they were new to Pearland they gave them the same stinking attitude. These people walk around like robots "just doing their job". They act the same way towards the kids (no emotions). The only people that I have seen go out of their way to help, smile, or just say hello is the School Nurse and the Counselor. If I would need anything from Rustic Oak I would definitely go to the Mrs Hinshaw the counselor or Mrs Scott the nurse. I'm not saying all Pearland staff are the same because I have a child in Alexander Middle School and the staff is amazing. You feel the warmth as soon as you walk in that place and no matter what they are dealing with they don't show their frustration on you. I truly hope someone from Rustic Oak reads this and starts making a change. A smile is contagious. Close Quote
